2011 MERCEDES-BENZ GL450 Complaints

RECALL THE AIR SUSPENSION BAGS KEEPS BUSTING ALSO I CAN'T TELL HOW MUCH GAS IN MY TANK I REPLACE THE BACK AIR SUSPENSION AIR BAG AND NOW THE FRONT HAS GONE OUT I ALSO REPLACE THE SUSPENSION LEVELING VALUE THE CAR BOUNCES WHEN DRIVING

I AM THE OWNER OF THIS 2011 MERCEDES-BENZ GL450 FOR 7 YEARS. IN THE PAST FEW YEARS, I HAVE BEEN RECEIVING THE AIRBAG RECALL NOTICES FROM MERCEDES-BENZ. SO FAR, NO INDICATION OF WHEN THIS RECALL WILL BE TAKEN CARE OF. OBVIOUSLY MERCEDES-BENZ DOESN'T CARE OF ITS' CUSTOMERS' SAFETY. I ALSO APPALL THAT OUR GOVERNMENT HAS NO REGULATION IN PLACE TO FORCE THE CAR MANUFACTURER TO FIX THIS WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME FRAME. IS THAT BECAUSE OF THE AUTO MANUFACTURES CAN AFFORD STRONG LOBBYING IN CAPITAL HILL ?I?!?!

DEAR LADY/GENTLEMAN GOOD MORNING I WAS DRIVING OUT FROM THE PARKING VERY SLOW. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT HAPPENED BUT FOR WHAT I KNOW CAR INCREASE SPEED RAPIDLY. I PUSH BRAKES BUT DOESN'T STOP AS A RESULT MY CAR HIT OTHER CARS IN PARKING. FOR WHAT I KNOW STEERING WAS LOCK. PLEASE CHECK IF MY CAR HAD ANY ELECTRONIC ATTACK . THANK YOU IN ADVANCE [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TAKATA RECALL. THIS CAR IS USED TO TRANSPORT MY GRAND KIDS AROUND TOWN. I ALSO USE IT AS A REALTOR TO CARRY CUSTOMERS AROUND. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SLOW REACTION FROM THE MERCEDES DEALERSHIP AND THE LIABILITY I CARRY. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY PASSENGERS. PLEASE PUT SOME PRESSURE ON THEM TO REPAIR/REPLACE THESE DANGEROUS AIR BAGS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 MERCEDES-BENZ GL450. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 116V081000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT CALLED A LOCAL DEALER (MERCEDES-BENZ OF HEMPSTEAD, 110 W GRAHAM AVE, HEMPSTEAD, NY 11550) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE REMEDY WAS NOT AVAILABLE AND TO WAIT UNTIL THE NOTIFICATION INFORMING HER TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE AIRMATIC SYSTEM EXPLODED WHILE THE CAR WAS AT THE MERCEDES BENZ DEALIER IN MODESTO, CALIFORNIA PARKED TO HAVE THE BREAKS REPAIRED .. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER THE CAR IS NO OPERABLE DUE TO ONE OF THE VARIOUS AIRMATIC CONTROLES EXPLODED WHILE PARKED WAITING BEING SERVICES. THE EXPLOSION WAS LOUD AND KEEPT THE CAR BOUNCING FOR A COUPLE MINUTES WHILE THE OTHER AIRMATIC CONTROLES WERE DEFLATING DUE TO THE EXPLOTION. MORE INFORMATION CAN BE OBTAINED FROM THE MERCEDES BENZ DEALER IN MODESTO CALIFORNIA SINCE THE EXPLO TION OCCURRED AT THEIR SHOP

TAKATA RECALL. SINCE 2/11/16 THE REMEDY FOR THE RECALL HAS NOT BEEN AVAILABLE. WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE ON 11/10/17, REMEDY WAS STILL UNAVAILABLE. HOW LONG BEFORE A REMEDY WILL BE AVAILABLE? RECALL # 2016020003.

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED A NOTICE OF THE RECALL APPROXIMATELY 2 YEARS AGO. WE ORIGINALLY PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM FLAGSHIP MOTORCARS OF LYNNFIELD, MA BUT MOVED TO TEXAS IN NOVEMBER 2015. WE HAD OUR MERCEDES BENZ GL450 SERVICED AT MERCEDES-BENZ OF THE WOODLANDS, TX AT THE BEGINNING OF 2016 AND ASKED ABOUT GETTING THE AIRBAGS REPLACED. WE WERE TOLD THAT THEY WOULD CONTACT US WHEN THE PARTS CAME IN BUT THEY HAVE NEVER DONE SO. WE'VE CHECKED IN WITH THEM ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS BUT CONTINUE TO BE TOLD THAT THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO REPLACE THE AIRBAGS FOR THE RECALL.

I HAVE CONTACTED MERCEDES MULTIPLE TIMES AND ALSO QUESTIONED EACH YEAR WHEN I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE, ALWAYS TOLD THE SAME....THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS. I HAVE PARKED MY VEHICLE BECAUSE I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT.

TAKATA AIRBAG STILL INSIDE CAR, HAVE BEEN ASKING DEALER FOR ALMOST 3 YEARS NOW TO FIX IT, THEY STATE THEY HAVE NO PARTS? WHY HASN'T THIS BEEN FIXED. NOW I HEAR TAKATA FILED BANKRUPTCY, SO WHAT HAPPENS NOW? SHOULDNT THE DEALERS BUY BACK THE CARS LIKE VW DID WITH THE ISSUE WITH MILEAGE, THIS IS A LOT MORE SERIOUS, CAN CAUSE DEATH IF IN A CRASH AND THEY CANNOT FIX IT.
